Video Footage of suicide bombing in Egypt, two deaths and multiple injuries

Egyptian Interior Ministry announced the death of two policemen when a suicide bomber allegedly blew himself up near Egypt's renowned Al-Azhar mosque in the center of Cairo. The tragic incident left three individuals injured and resulted in the martyrdom of a police officer from national security and an officer from Cairo investigations. The suspect has been identified as 37-year-old Al-Hassan Abdullah and is believed to have planted an explosive device last week near a mosque. "As security surrounded the man and was set to arrest and control him, an explosive device in his possession went off," the ministry said. The explosion in the Gamaliya district was a rarity for a central area of the capital, after progress from a security crackdown under President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi.
